The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
They should release the Jeff demo of "Other Side". The one he said sounded "creepy".
I don't know if it's the original demo, but they did give away a CD at PJ20 containing a version of Other Side with Jeff on vocals. I wouldn't say it sounds creepy, though.

In the wake of the two new (old) songs leaking, I've been inspired to work on a retracking of Riot Act that encompasses the three officially released b-sides from the sessions (Down, Undone, Other Side.)
It made me realise both that I like all of the songs from the record a whole lot more than I often realise (not that I ever thought they were bad, mind you) and how much I don't really care for the flow of the official tracklisting.
It hasn't been an easy task, I'm currently on my fourth (and hopefully final) revision. Once I've given this one a few spins I'll decide whether it's as good as I think it can be or if it needs some further alteration.
Such a great, creative session for the band; directionless in the most pleasant way.
1. Arc 2. Love Boat Captain 3. Half Full 4. Save You 5. Cropduster 6. Down 7. Ghost 8. I Am Mine 9. Thumbing My Way 10. Green Disease 11. Can't Keep 12. Help Help 13. Get Right 14. Other Side 15. You Are 16. Undone 17. Bushleaguer 18. All or None
Much better.
If you want to try this at home, I strongly recommend using the original b-side versions of Down, Undone and Other Side. I can't recall all of the differences but Down certainly has some new guitar work and the original mixes fit more comfortably with the sonic character of the other Riot Act material.

Wow. When you add in the B-Sides, it makes the album much more full (and not in a numbers way!). Very cool. Thanks for posting. Kind of rekindled my desire to go back and listen to Riot Act. At one time, it was my least favorite PJ album and over numerous revisits has moved into the upper half!

I don't remember down having more stuff on lost dogs. I'll have to listen for that. I prefer the ld version of undone but I have never thought about it for retracting purposes

Interesting, will try this. I have not listened to RA in a long time. Striking to see Cant Keep buried in the middle. I assume those b-side versions are on gremmie?

Some nice transitions in here. I like other side to you are to undone in particular

Having said that riot act was already an overlong album to me, with a few too many mediocre songs. I'd rather see it smaller and have the b-sides replace weaker tracks. 18 songs would be exhausting for me

Where is there a b-side version of Undone? That wasn't released until LD.
Woah! I never knew this existed. My version of I Am Mine obviously has Down. I had no idea there was another version of Undone. One of my favorite songs from LD so I'll have to track this down.
